I wanted to use Clip to take advantage of some downtime while traveling. Loaded up my iPad with some on camera interview clips I need to select and arrange for a Premiere Pro project I'm working on. everything was fine when I was at the office, I was ready to go. When I opened the app on the plane it wanted me to sign in (again) but I wasn't connected to the Internet. Couldn't get past that screen. I could have done it if I had planned to use iMovie, it didn't require an Internet connection. Did all that prep for nothing.

As long as you don't manually log out of Clip, you should be able to continue using Clip for a period without Internet connectivity. I'm not positive how long that period is, but I think it's 24 hours.

Earlier versions of Clip had bugs that resulted in getting logged out. We fixed one such bug in Version 1.2 and another in 2.0 (which was released today).

Edited to add: To address your precise question, if you end up logged out without Wi-Fi, there's no way to get back in without logging in, which requires a network connection.

Hopefully it's fixed by now. I did have the app open and was signed in before I lost connectivity, and unfortunately the wifi wasn't working on the plane. Once the app went sleep, the login screen came up when I woke it back up. No matter though, when I actually got the app working again I found I didn't have precise enough control to effectively select in points and out points for the soundbites anyway!

I'm sorry to hear that you had a frustrating experience, and thanks for your feedback on the login process and editing experience. We've definitely heard requests for more precise editing.

Out of curiosity, were you using Premiere Clip v. 2.0? If you are using 2.0 with the "Sync to Music" feature enabled, the in/out will snap to the nearest musical beat of your soundtrack, which would make editing to the clip's diegetic audio more challenging.
